I keep wondering why tablet manufacturers are all focused on the smaller form factor when they could be producing all in one screens upwards of 32" to replace clunky desktop units. Such screen sizes wouldn't necessarily need the generosity of a long lasting battery because of their sizes but could pack enough punch for compete with desktop units.
Hopefully manufacturers delve into that market more and drive the price down.
- code_duck 13y agoHow exactly would one hold a 32" tablet, or situate it at a desk? Arms grow very tired operating horizontal touch screens, and if the screen is on a table, angled, it's awkward to sit and look at.

- freehunter 13y agoThere should be a stand that holds such a tablet at an angle comparable to a drafter's table [1]. That especially combined with a Wacom digitizer would be perfect for a lot of creative professionals.

- wildgift 13y agoHa ha. Ridiculous. The reason why smartphones and some tablets are popular has less to do with touch than with size. It's pleasant to hold a small screen a foot from your face for reading and watching videos.
